Here's to Oompah country softcore euro rock!
	1:42am Joe McG: You said it, Vic!
	1:51am fleep: The best part of many 45s is knowing they won't go on for very long. Like now.

	2:00am Joe McG: So high you could drown? In the puddle of sound?

	2:29am Joe McG: I hope he doesn't hit anything except fluffy clouds.
	2:31am fleep: And he lands safely on Dolly Parton
	2:32am coalhard: that's what they said when lindy lifted off --we see how that turned out--idiot landed in FRANCE
	2:36am Joe McG: I seem to think that anyone who landed on Dolly Parton could coount themselves among the blessed. And I'll say no more about that.
	2:37am Joe McG: That was a fucking beautiful steel guitar solo, if you'll pardon my language. Bring it, Willie.

Mon. Jan 27th, 9am - Noon: Surface Noise (Almost) Live from Lincoln Center with Special Guest Don Fleming (More info...)
On January 13th, Surface Noise was poised to do a special live remote broadcast from Lincoln Center's Library of the Performing Arts with special guest Don Fleming . Unfortunately, technical problems prevented the show from being broadcast. While still at the library, surrounded by the music they had selected from the library's collection, Joe and Don decided to do the show anyway. The show that they recorded will be broadcast in full on today's Surface Noise.
